The author summarizes the results of a three year study on public attitudes towards nanotechnology, and discusses the impact of the data on public engagement programs.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type></record></records></xml>
